Goshen, Ind. – Goshen College President Rebecca Stoltzfus is joining 91 other college presidents of diverse institutions from across the country in the consortium College Presidents for Civic Preparedness to advance higher education’s pivotal role in preparing students to be engaged citizens and upholding free expression on campus.
Through the consortium, which is designed by the presidents and convened by the Institute for Citizens & Scholars, participating presidents are dedicated to preparing the next generation of well-informed, productively engaged and committed citizens; defending free expression, civil discourse and critical inquiry as essential civic norms; and increasing thoughtful engagement and better understanding by students for the effective functioning of our democracy. The consortium was first announced with 15 members in August 2023 and has grown significantly since then.
